I used to work in home health and I remember feeling the same way about my clients and their occupational identity. I remember being managed by nursing, who told us to stick to ADLs, yet I continued to address other occupational interests to increase quality of life and satisfaction with participation. I love this topic and the study and outcome measure. I liked the focus on the models that guide this.

The presenter rekindled my passion for being an Occupational Therapist (OTR) by highlighting the importance of an Occupational-Based Approach over a Hybrid Approach. He emphasized how focusing on meaningful, everyday activities enhances client engagement and outcomes. His insights reinforced the foundational principles of our profession, reminding me of the transformative impact we can have on our clients' lives.

I have bias being a hand therapist to the physical aspects of rehabilitation, however as OTs cannot lose this part of our practice framework. While Occupation and Occupation Identity are important, they will typically come after the physical components are addressed. You cannot ask a person who has just had a complex surgery to the hand or another part of the body to jump to occupation-based treatment until their physical function and pain have been addressed. At first those are limiting.

I like the idea, however there’s noted limitations- time to complete the documentation, likely limits of clinical space and guidelines of work space, etc, would make it hard to consistently carry out in practice.

I think the presenter has potential & I in a perfect world all of what he think should happen would work great. I used to love to modify goals & create new goals focusing on what the patient enjoyed and what the patient thought was functional but was "educated" that goals have to be appropriate to the discharge plan. The person may love to cook but if they no longer cook or wont be doing it any longer we can't incorporate that as part of therapy. Audits and loss of job threats are real.

by
Sameera
on
March 22, 2024
It goes along with my own personal feelings about the therapy I have always provided, not what is usually found in a SNF setting. If we practitioners as an entity, don't fight companies that are now dictating what we can or cannot do with our clients, for how long we see clients, our documentation requirements as well as our productivity requirements, we are slowly allowing them to take away our skills we put so much time and effort in learning to get our clients back to what they need.

I read the transcript of this lecture and found the concept of occupational identity to be very thought-shifting. I thought a great deal about the importance of client motivation -- probably the most important factor in client outcomes -- and how we can prioritize its cultivation while still working within practice and reimbursement restraints.

Even though I am a pediatric clinician in a school-based setting for children with developmental disabilities, I liked that the author reviewed the frames and theories related to the occupational therapy profession that emphasize the importance of occupation. It was also nice for me to review terminology used in settings with the adult population as a refresher.

A good framework to keep the use of occupation front and center. The speaker does a good job referencing the need for us to remember the importance of following a frame of reference to guide our approaches from evaluation, goal formation, treatment and reassessment. He also does a good job demonstrating the benefits of integrating occupation into our interventions. This is what sets OT aside and makes us so needed. The beginning of the course was a bit hard to follow. Perhaps it was just me tho.
